Not only does Alwyn share his stubborn fat loss protocol, but he explains why some people lose fat while on a recovery week...

CB: Have you had clients lose a surprising amount of fat when they either a) Increased their calorie intake; or b) took a week off from hard training? If so, how do we explain these results? How can people lose fat while exercising less and eating more?

AC:
The biggest factor in fat loss is metabolism -- and our goal is to raise it as much as possible. Sometimes excessive aerobic training or excessive lower intensity training can actually lower metabolism -- as can extended periods of keeping your calories too low.

I think there is a "Whoosh" effect to dieting (got the term from Lyle McDonald actually).
